Switching Up Positive Incentives
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Cunha's classroom raised $259
This project is fully funded
My Project
Students today lack motivation and struggle to stay engaged with their school work. Rather than condemn students for their lack of focus and attention, I try to find ways to meet students where they are at and find ways to engage them on their level.
Video games are the perfect way to incentivize students to work hard and show good behavior!
I use a Nintendo Switch as a whole class reward for students. Right now we only have Mario Kart to play. With your help we can add to our rotation of games, including sports and dancing!
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
